As I was pouring the hot water for our cups pf tea, I asked Lori, " How would like to live here?"
"I would love to move in with you Elissa," she replied.
"I'll tell you what, I'll talk to the building superintendent and see about getting a new contract drawn up," I added.
"So, when do you plan to have your operation, Elissa?"
"I hope to have it in a year or two, Lori."
"I also hope to have my operation in a year or two."
We sat and talked for four hours; We talked about our goals for becoming women, what we would look for in a man, and our work. It was approximately ten-thirty when Lori decided to head back to her cousin's apartment. "I'll see you at the next group session Elissa," she informed me.
"Let's go out for a girl's night out this weekend," I said.
"It'll be fun, that's for sure," she responded.
